Student In Dire Need of Water

Dear lonely isle,

Did you hear the news?

NO WATER FOR 36 HOURS. WHOLE OF KK EXPERIENCING WATER CUT.

OMG.

Everyone in the house has been going through a clothes washing spree, and water boiling spree. Tonight will probably mark the bathing spree, as well as water collecting spree.
Think I better start my toilet-going spree as well.

To think that the afternoons now are so hot, I sincerely believe that you can slowly boil a glass of water by just leaving it out in the sun.
Yeah, sure it's windy, just like how the desert is windy.
It's so hot, any sun rays on your skin hurts.
Forget a glass of water, I believe you can actually cook a person by forcing him or her to stand beyond the safety net of any shade. Possibly burnt to a crisp. Yummy.

And hot afternoons require baths.
But baths require water.
Which there will be none, in the next two days.

What is a girl to do?
Yes, I know that what we collected the water for. But I don't think two pails of water is enough for me to bathe for 2 days. (Not counting my flossing, face-washing, hand-washing, etc. etc.)
Which reminds me, I should wash my hair tonight.

(Because washing hair takes up twice the amount of water you need to shower. Yes, it really does. I have longer hair than you do. I use more water, more shampoo, more conditioner, more time and more effort overall. Yes, I should really consider cutting it. No, I'm not going to cut it. Yet.)

On another note, I HATE MY TIMETABLE.
Oh yes, don't we all hate our timetable?
I can already foresee a future with no spare time, no free time and possibly no sleeping time.
And come mid terms, GONG HEI FATT CHOY :)
It's a full blown circus, trying to juggle lectures, labs, reports (I've got 4 a week by the way. Yes, god bless me.), assignments, studying and still find time to sleep on top of everything.

Speaking of sleep, the heat is making me really drowsy...

If you'll excuse me, the bed awaits.

love, joyce.
